About Verde Trader

Verde Trader is a fast-growing marketplace for reusable industrial packaging, including IBC totes and other bulk containers. We help companies buy, sell, recycle, and recover reusable containers across the country.

We’re looking for an Outbound Sales Representative who can move fast, make calls, build relationships, and create new business opportunities. This role is a great fit for someone coming from freight brokerage, logistics, transportation, carrier sales, dispatch, or high-volume outbound sales.

Why Freight Brokers Do Well Here

Freight brokers already understand the grind: calling prospects, building trust quickly, managing follow-ups, negotiating, and keeping a pipeline moving.

At Verde Trader, those same skills translate directly into sales success. Instead of chasing trucks, load boards, and spot rates, you’ll be building a national network of vendors and customers who need reusable packaging solutions. You’ll still get the fast-paced sales environment, uncapped upside, and daily wins — but with a product and marketplace that helps companies save money and reduce waste.

Purpose of the Role

As an Outbound Sales Representative, your job is to create new business. You’ll prospect companies across the country, identify businesses that generate or need reusable containers, qualify opportunities, and help grow Verde Trader’s vendor and customer network.

You’ll play a key role in expanding our marketplace, driving consistent tote recovery, and keeping valuable industrial packaging in circulation.

Responsibilities

• Make outbound calls to new vendors, customers, and business prospects

• Identify companies that buy, sell, recycle, or generate used IBC totes and bulk containers
• Qualify leads and uncover opportunities for Account Executives
• Build and manage a consistent outbound pipeline
• Follow up with prospects and maintain accurate CRM records
• Develop relationships with businesses in freight, logistics, warehousing, manufacturing, food production, chemicals, recycling, and industrial supply
• Hit and exceed monthly activity, meeting, and sales targets

What We’re Looking For

• 0–2 years of sales, freight, logistics, brokerage, transportation, or customer-facing experience
• Cold calling experience strongly preferred
• Freight brokerage, carrier sales, dispatch, logistics, or transportation experience is a plus
• Comfortable making a high volume of outbound calls
• Strong communication skills and confidence on the phone
• Competitive, money-motivated, and goal-oriented mindset
• Ability to handle rejection and keep moving
• Organized follow-up habits and strong pipeline discipline
• Interest in sales, marketplaces, recycling, sustainability, or industrial operations

Compensation & Benefits

• $52,000 base salary
• Uncapped commission
• On-target earnings of $4,000–$15,000+/month
• Annual earning potential of $52,000–$150,000+

• Paid time off
